If your APC solenoid is clacking loudly at idle, does it stop making the noise when you put your foot on the brake?
Mine did that when the car was new ('87 900T) and the morons at the dealership tried to tell me it was normal. (This was probably because they didn't want to fix it free under warranty!)
Anyway, I drove it like that for over a year, until I got to California and a Saab mech told me to check/replace the pressure transducer under the dash. It was an expensive little part, and awkward to get to (in front of the driver's left knee under there...) but replacing it silenced my APC solenoid, and it's never clacked since -- nearly a dozen years.
That's something you might look into.
